| Lonneke (St. Honoré-les-Bains) | Posted: May 19, 2013 - 01:52 Really nice you place this number from Doe Maar ! A dutch listener who lives in France. |
| ambrebalte (Beijing most of the time - Wolxheim in France now) | Posted: Jan 13, 2013 - 14:39 Why the "Skunk" title under the no-cover cover? A bit surrealist, belli donni (Bill and Rebecca) Editing : Oh...I understand. Clicking on the title instead of clicking on the Album's name. Doing this just leads to Amazon page, doing that explains it all. Well, I'll have to give it a second chance. Not convinced by the first listening |
| Blackbirds (Netherlands) | Posted: Aug 09, 2012 - 11:12 Doe Maar!!!! Early stuff OK, I was more into Het Goede Doel though (loosely translated as Charity). Oh I love RP! |
| vanmas (Leiden, Netherlands) | Posted: Jun 07, 2012 - 07:25 This is why I like RP so much! To hear Doe Maar over here! My favorite Dutch band of all times! Thanks Bill! |
| Dinges,_the_Dude (below sea-level, N52°37', E4°88') | Posted: Jun 07, 2012 - 07:23 I'm going to see them playing in Fall this year, although I never was a fan in the '80s. Now I like them for the sake of old times ;-) |
| Lamotte | Posted: Mar 04, 2012 - 04:31 Just to late to hear Doe Maar. |
| jappert (Amsterdam, Netherlands) | Posted: Mar 04, 2012 - 04:23 Wow, I can´t believe you have this on your playlist. That´s quiet obscure. Great song. Thanks fort playing this! |
| thondermonst (Antwerpen, Belgium) | Posted: Mar 04, 2012 - 04:15 Woehoe! My childhood heroes. Thanks! |

| PeeBee (Down South in The Netherlands) | Posted: Feb 19, 2011 - 05:13  Kan m'n oren niet geloven...can't believe my ears: Doe Maar! |

Doe Maar - a famous Dutch Ska/Pop band from the Netherlands (they were extremely popular in the 80's). Must be a instrumental though, because dutch lyrics sounds ridiculously strange for the English-based listeners of course. Nice touch, Bill. And many regards from Holland! We do love RP over here. |
| CoYoT51 (Lima, Perù - Reims, France) | Posted: Aug 13, 2010 - 08:58 Love this tune since the first time I heard it here. Thank you, Bill! |

If you type "Doe maar", you get "Do it" which sounds reasonable. But if you type "Doe Maar", you get "Neil Young"! I think somebody's playing with my brain. "doe maar" is a typical Dutch expression for which there is no real good English translation. "doe" means "do" and "maar" can mean "whatever". If somebody suggests they will do something and you don't really mind you would say "doe maar" as a motivation without getting personally involved. It's a great name a for a ska band from the early punk era. |

| V-bro | Posted: Jan 03, 2010 - 14:36 Doe maar is da bomb!  Bill if you read this you may want to listen to the song "de bom"! Indeed they were so popular that they couldn't walk the streets here! Thanks for playing!  |

I may be in the minority, but that doesn't seem to be a problem to me. Granted, I might miss some portion of the nuance, but as long as the musicianship is at least as important as the lyrical content... Heck, there's lots of music that's ostensibly in English that I don't understand the lyrics and yet love ;) Interesting comment. As far as I know Bella Donna is instrumental. And the language of music, everyone speaks. jk |

Some of the early Police stuff was basically ska. |
| waldek (leidschendam netherlands) | Posted: Feb 28, 2007 - 15:08 Nice for the 15 registrated listeners in the Netherlands. Thanks Bill! |
| Zigi (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) | Posted: Dec 02, 2006 - 05:40 Cool, Doe Maar on RP! 
Shame I missed it though. 
I have all of their CD's but the problem is all of the other songs have Dutch lyrics so unfortunatly not very suitable for RP. Love this song though, solid 10. |
| MM13 (Garden with laptop) | Posted: Sep 05, 2006 - 06:34 Well, what a surpise this is. Hallo mede muziekfreaks in ons kleine kikkerlandje! This band was enormous in Holland in the 80's |
